Chapter 62: Dinner, Gathering
Soon the long holiday of October 1 arrived. The programming competition of the Department of Computer Science was successfully concluded, and their school won the first prize, and everyone who paid for it was happy for it, and the school specially organized a dinner party to celebrate the good results.
The invited people entered the venue one by one, and Mu Ziyu didn't want to come to this kind of dull dinner. But due to the teacher's warm invitation and the confusion of his mind when he was alone, he didn't want to be left alone, so he still came to this dinner.
Mu Ziyu was sitting in his position and smiling and chatting with the people next to him, if he didn't speak and just sat still, Mu Ziyu would feel uncomfortable and start to think nonsense. After chatting for a while, he saw the instructor walk in with the person he had been thinking about day and night and was in great pain. Mu Ziyu didn't expect it at all, he was stunned for a while, and he couldn't even hear what the person next to him said to him.
"Mu Ziyu, what's wrong with you?" Li Sheng, who finished the game with Mu Ziyu and was still a good friend of Mu Ziyu, couldn't help but ask when he saw Mu Ziyu looking straight at the door without saying a word.
As soon as Li Sheng asked, Mu Ziyu turned his head back and said, "It's okay, I'm just thinking about things." ”
Li Sheng didn't ask any more questions when he heard Mu Ziyu say this, but he still glanced at the door, and saw the instructor bring a young man he didn't know and didn't seem to have anything to do with the project to his table. "Who is this?" Li Sheng muttered.
Jing Ye wanted to sit away from Mu Ziyu, but the instructor smiled kindly and let Jing Ye sit next to him, and that position was the position next to Mu Ziyu.
The instructor said, "It's better to let you young people sit together, and there are topics to talk about." ”
Jingye stood still, thinking about how to excuse himself.
At this time, Mu Ziyu said, "Sit down, Jingye." He stood up and gentlemanly pulled out the chair that Sedum was going to sit on.
"You know! That would be great. Sit down, Jingye. The instructor urged.
Jing Ye could only sit down, and he didn't know what excuse to make if he refused.
As soon as Li Sheng saw them sitting down, he asked, "Teacher, who is this?" How did I come in with you? ”
The instructor smiled happily and said, "Let me introduce you, this is Jingye's classmates who have made important contributions to our competition, and if it weren't for Jingye's help, we really can't find the loopholes in that program." "The instructor talked about their competition program in a class, and it happened that Jingye found a loophole in their program.
"Really? Is it the loophole that we can't even find? It's amazing, is it in our grade? How I haven't seen it. Li Sheng admired with doubt.
"He's a freshman in our department, so it's not surprising that you don't know him." Mu Ziyu explained.
"Oh, I see, that's right. It's really young and promising, and it's useless to have an old bone like me. Li Sheng said jokingly.
And Jing Ye sat among them, not saying a word, just watching plate after plate of dishes be served, gradually filling the whole table.
Li Sheng said again: "Jingye, why don't you speak as a junior brother?" Isn't it uncomfortable? ”
When Mu Ziyu heard Li Sheng say this, he had never dared to look carefully at Jing Ye's eyes before, but at this time, he looked over head-on, only to find that Jing Ye's face was very good, and his face was as fair and clean as ever, so he knew that Li Sheng was joking again.
And Jing Ye still didn't speak at this time, and didn't even give Li Sheng a look, and the scene suddenly became embarrassing.
"Teacher, let's eat the vegetables first, if we don't eat the vegetables, it will be cold." Mu Ziyu resolved the embarrassment of the full screen.
"Yes, yes, everyone is here, let's move the chopsticks, everyone must be hungry." The instructor also knew that Shen Xiao didn't like to talk, so he also came to solve the siege together.
In this way, the silence just now was swept away, and the dinner party began to be lively again, everyone picked up chopsticks and began to eat, and greeted each other, noisy, and toasted, as if the peace just now did not exist.
……
In the United States, Shen Xiao's basketball game also ended successfully, living up to expectations, their efforts were not in vain, and their team won the first place in this competition. The club also had a meal together, which included cheerleaders who supported them.
In the afternoon, in the XX restaurant, Shen Xiao sat at the dinner table early, and Shen Xiao, who had worked hard for a month, could finally relax and have a good meal.
Everyone is almost here, just a few people are missing, and no one has sat down in the vacant seat on Shen Xiao's left. Shen Xiao thought: Why is no one sitting next to me?
Suddenly, a girl in a long white dress sat on Shen Xiao's left. Shen Xiao thought strangely: How could there still be girls?
Shen Xiao raised his eyes and saw that a girl with an apple face and big eyes was supposed to be a cute girl, wearing a white dress, but she looked elegant. Isn't this Echo? Shen Xiao was a little confused.
"Echo, why are you here?" Shen Xiao asked.
"Idol, I'm ......" Ike didn't finish yet.
Another loud and powerful voice helped Echo explain: "I invited her here, as a member of our important cheerleading team, of course here." This voice came from Xiahou Xuan, who was sitting to the right of Shen Xiao.
Shen Xiao thought: So that's the case. Shen Xiao, who only knew that he was coming to dinner and didn't know who he had invited, suddenly understood.
"That's it. Idol, surprise. Eco said. For this dinner, Ai Ke, who had been dressed up for a long time, wanted to surprise Shen Xiao, so she didn't tell Shen Xiao that she was coming, she waited for Shen Xiao expectantly, wanting to hear Shen Xiao's praise.
"Since everyone is here, let's eat first, and if we have anything to say, we will talk together when we are full." Xiahou Xuan said loudly, so that everyone could hear it.
Shen Xiao picked up the chopsticks and didn't find Ike's thoughts, he said to Ike: "Ike, eat quickly!" Tell me if there's anything you'd like to eat. His eyes turned to the dishes on the table, only the food on the table, and he didn't see the small emotions in Echo's eyes.
"yes, okay." Aike still didn't want to die like this, and she asked more obviously: "Idol, have you noticed that I am different today." ”
Shen Xiao looked at Ai Ke, looked at it, and thought: What's the difference? It's no different, it's still the same Echo.
Shen Xiao changed the topic and said, "Ike, don't talk about this, you can eat quickly, if you don't eat it, you will be eaten up by those hungry ghosts." Shen Xiao said, and sandwiched a piece of braised fish for Aike.
Aike looked at the fish in the bowl, it was cloudy and clear, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said, "Okay." Shen Xiao's kindness to her can make her forget her previous unpleasantness, and her liking for Shen Xiao has become deeper and deeper as time goes by, and she gradually can't give up.
Xiahou Xuan heard Shen Xiao's words, watched Shen Xiao eat quickly, and the chopsticks in his hand didn't stop, thinking: Hungry ghost? I don't know which one is the real starving ghost. The appetite is really good. Xiahou Xuan smiled and shook his head gently.
At the dinner table, a large glass of beer was poured in front of every boy, Shen Xiao didn't touch the glass of wine, he already understood the reason for drinking and making mistakes, and his amount of alcohol was really not very good. But it backfired, and there were always people who wanted to let Shen Xiao drink.
No. 1 picked up the wine glass, his face was red, a little drunk, he said loudly: "Today is the day we celebrate victory, how can we not have a drink together, everyone quickly pick up the wine glass and touch glasses together." ”
The people next to him also began to coax, "Hurry up, you should have a drink on such a good day." "Raise your glass, everybody."
Hearing the urging of the people around him, Shen Xiao could only pick up the wine glass helplessly.
Xiahou Xuan presided over the situation and said with a little majesty: "Enough, calm down." ”
Xiahou Xuan's words made everyone shut up, and everyone seemed to be still for a second. Below, Xiahou Xuan said again: "Since everyone is happy, it doesn't hurt to have a drink, everyone raise a glass." ”
Everyone regained their smiles and raised their glasses, and the girls picked up the drinks in front of them, clinked glasses together, celebrated together, and drank together.
No. 1 saw that Ai Ke only drank a drink, and a wicked smile appeared on his face, and he thought: Shen Xiao, you have brought your girlfriend here, and you still don't behave well in front of her.
No. 1 walked behind Shen Xiao and patted Shen Xiao, Shen Xiao turned around and said, "Shen Xiao, it's okay for other girls to drink drinks, but Aike shouldn't drink drinks, as a boyfriend, you are here, shouldn't you have a drink?" ”
Before Shen Xiao could speak, Ai Ke heard No. 1's words, so he turned around and said, "I don't know how to drink, I'll drink another drink instead!" ”
No. 1 thought: Just wait for your words, this fish is really easy to take the bait!
"Since Ai Ke can't drink it, then Shen Xiao, what do you have to say?" No. 1 looked at Shen Xiao and said.
Shen Xiao took the cup in No. 1's hand and drank it in one gulp, because he drank it too quickly, the wine still flowed out of his mouth, as soon as Shen Xiao finished drinking, he wiped the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, poured the cup down, and said, "That's okay!" ”
"Not bad, not bad." Speaking one, he took the bottle again, filled the glass, and said, "But what about the glass just now!" It was you who drank it for Echo, and I salute you for this glass of wine, and I congratulate you on your success in this competition. No. 1's eyes were full of overflowing jealousy, and he thought: Shen Xiao, if I don't get drunk with you today, I won't stand and walk out.
Shen Xiao couldn't refuse, so he filled his wine glass and drank it with him.
No. 2 also walked over when he saw that there was a bustle to see, and when he saw No. 1 drinking Shen Xiao drinking, he also came to join in the excitement, holding a wine glass and saying, "Shen Xiao, have a drink with me too!" Celebrate the victory of this competition. ”
Shen Xiao looked embarrassed, didn't know how to refuse, and looked at No. 2 hesitantly.
Ai Ke watched Shen Xiao frown and drank the wine, and kept drinking, she suddenly felt distressed in her heart, she said: "Idol, you don't know how to drink, don't keep toasting him." ”
"He won't drink, do you, as a girlfriend, want to drink for him?" No. 2 didn't see Shen Xiao blocking the wine for Ai Ke just now, and he didn't know that Ai Ke couldn't drink. Number Two looked at Eco a little defiantly.
"I drink it, I drink it." Ai Ke felt sorry for Shen Xiao, and went to get the wine glass in front of Shen Xiao with some anger.
A wheat-colored hand picked up the wine glass faster and drank the large glass of beer with a gurgling down, and Eco looked up to see that it was Shen Xiao who had helped her drink the wine. Eco's eyes were deeply moved.
Shen Xiao thought: Although I don't drink well, I can't let Aike drink, it's okay, just have another drink.
"Are you satisfied?" Shen Xiao said to No. 2 after drinking.
"Yes, Shen Xiao, drinking wine is like drinking water, it's a man." After saying that, he and No. 1 walked away shoulder to shoulder, and said something with a smile.
At this time, there were already a lot of people gathered next to Shen Xiao's seat, and when everyone saw that Shen Xiao was drinking so much, they all handed over their cups and wanted to have a drink with Shen Xiao. Shen Xiao didn't refuse, and drank them all. Shen Xiaomai's face was faintly flushed, his eyes narrowed slightly, his expression was a little confused, he was drunk, and let the glass of wine go down.
